2.5 Intelligent HART Calibration(ADT673 only)
The calibrator supports HART communication, uses a simplified DD file to provide the setting, maintenance and
calibration of common parameters for HART pressure transmitters. It is recommended to refer to the instruction manual
of the transmitter before using the calibrator to operate the transmitter. If you need full-featured HART operation, please
refer to Chapter 8 "HART Communicator".
Note: The calibrator always acts as the master station during the communication with the HART device. Therefore,
in order to avoid harm to the control system, the HART device must be separated from the control system before using
the calibrator to connect to the HART device.
1. Search and Connection
◆ Turn on the electrical signal measurement area display in the main operation interface, select mode to
start the HART function, and the calibrator will automatically switch to the power supply configuration selected
by the last HART measurement (the default connection mode uses internal resistance with internal power
supply), and to search the "0" Address. After searching for the HART device, it will automatically connect and
display its value.
◆ Press to start search,or click the HART measurement channel screen when the HART device is not
connected to enter the HART power supply configuration interface. The connection method provided by the
calibrator is as follows:
24
1) The connection method of internal power supply and internal resistance is shown in Figure 7;
Figure 7 HART-Internal power and internal resistance
2) The connection method of external power supply and internal resistance is shown in Figure 8;
Figure 8 HART-External power and internal resistance
3) The connection method of external power supply and external resistance is shown in Figure 9;
Figure 9 HART-External power and external resistance
25
◆ After selecting the power supply configuration, enter the search interface. Start searching for HART devices
from address "0", if the search is successful at address "0", stop searching and display the HART device list
and main information, otherwise the calibrator will start searching from address "1" until address "15", After
finishing searching, the calibrator will list all the searched HART devices, and it can support up to 15 HART
devices at the same time;

(2) Operation
◆ In the HART settings interface, you can view the HART parameter values in real time
◆ After inputting the setting status of the current option, click to save,click to cancel saving and
return;
◆ If the input value is displayed in red when saving, it means the input value is not accepted, please check its
input range;
◆ If the current setting is canceled or the setting fails, the current item is restored.
5. Service
(1) Current loop test
◆ Click to select diagnosis/service, enter the current loop test, and perform the current loop test. The value
range of this parameter is (4-20) mA;
◆ The HART measurement value at the top of the calibrator interface is the actual value of the current loop.
(2) PV zeroing
◆ Select zeroing in the HART diagnosis/maintenance interface, and enter the zeroing interface;
◆ Ensure that the current measurement value is close enough to the zero point, otherwise it may cause zeroing
failure.
(3) Current adjustment
◆ By adjusting the proportional coefficient of the current output link of the transmitter, the AO value of the
29
transmitter is consistent with the actual output loop current;
◆ Provides adjustment of D/A zero point (4mA) and D/A gain (20mA): you can press the screen to get the current
value for adjustment
(4) Sensor trim
Sensor trim is the adjustment of the PV process variable of the transmitter, which usually contains one or two
adjustment points (low point and high point). Some transmitters do not support sensor trim operations (whether
the transmitter supports sensor trim, please refer to the transmitter's manual).
◆ Lower limit adjustment
Support setting PV unit and adjustment point value;
Note: pressure module needs to be connected。
1) Manually control the pressure of the transmitter through an external source. After the pressure
measurement is stable, press the Acquire key to directly obtain the standard value or directly press the
number key to manually input the value to be adjusted;
Note: Some transmitters do not need to input the adjustment value, the transmitter automatically uses the
upper and lower limits of the range (the lower limit of the range corresponds to the low point adjustment
value, and the upper limit of the range corresponds to the high point adjustment value) as the adjustment
value. In this case, any value can be input ;
2) Execute the trim (Trim) command. After successful, the PV value will change according to the executed trim
point value.
◆ Upper limit adjustment
The operation process is the same as that of lower limit adjustment.
◆ Restore factory
30
After selecting "Restore Factory", a prompt will appear asking "Are you sure to restore the sensor factory
calibration?” click on the screen to execute the factory restore command. After success, the
transmitter's high and low point adjustment values will be restored to the factory adjustment state.
